LOGINThe news reported the death of the President of Robles Construction after his secretary found the body and immediately called the police. The news of Robles’ death reached the members of the black market. Fear and anxiety ran through them now. The news of Governor Castro’s passing also spread. “President Robles left a message. In his message, he said he had many illegal businesses. That he was part of a group. And it was also stated in his message that he was the one who bombed the Knights’ mansion, which almost killed one of the fifth-generation Knights. And at the end of his message, he said he was involved in the encounter that happened to businessman Mr. Dominic Austin Stone,” “Sad, partner, right? I can’t say he deserved to die, but what he did to the Knights? That still doesn’t seem like enough,” “Well, partner, that’s the consequence of what he did.” Scarlett stood up, trembling in anger when she
“I am resigning from my position as Governor because I have committed many offenses. Drugs, prostitution, illegal gambling, and illegal smuggling. We stole a lot of goods from Perkins Inc. We also stole funds from taxes and funds from the Knights Foundation. Many politicians like me are members of the Black Market where illegal activities are rampant. That is why I am stepping down from my term to pay for all my offenses.” Governor Castro stared at the camera, hands clasped together. “The municipal hall is open to arrest me,” were his last words before the live broadcast ended. He swallowed hard after his short live broadcast, fidgeting with his hands. “I-I’ve done what you asked. Now it’s your turn to keep our agreement,” Governor Castro said, but he squeezed his eyes shut when the muzzle of a gun was pressed against his head. “Very good, Governor! Looks like you know how to keep your word,” Agustin said with a smirk. He lowered his gun, and Governor Castro finally breathed
They began planting explosives in different spots of the black market, including the club where Robles was. Agustin attached the bomb to the waiter’s body. The waiter’s eyes bulged, struggling, but too much blood had been lost and his body was weakening. “This is your payment for almost killing my cousin. That young man is a Knight. He’s my most trusted man,” Agustin whispered, clenching his fist, then punched the waiter’s gut hard, making him vomit blood. He pulled out a handkerchief and stuffed it into the waiter’s mouth. Then, after that, he set the timer for 5 minutes, took the man’s phone, and dialed the number in the call history. A moment later, the owner of the number answered. (“Marquez! Where are you? I have an order for you to find the sniper!”) Agustin grinned when he heard Gino Robles’ voice and turned to the weakening waiter. “It’s finally time to hear you, President Gino Robles.” He smirked, sat dow
When Agustin and Philip arrived at the club, they saw Emmett drinking alone. “Let’s go,” Agustin said expressionlessly. Emmett nodded, still silent, which made Agustin stop, clench his fist, and punch Emmett’s stomach. Emmett groaned, clutching his abdomen. “Adrian is already awake before I even left the hospital. We have something to do, so get yourself together because I won’t bring you to work looking like that. I’ll keep Adrian away from you if we mess this up tonight.” Agustin said firmly. Emmett’s eyes widened, groaning again as the alcohol hit him hard. “Adrian’s awake? Fuck!” he muttered, then followed Agustin and Philip. When they reached the transaction site, they frowned. “Where are we?” Philip asked. Agustin grinned, removed his helmet. “Welcome to the black market,” he said with a smile, lighting a cigarette. Philip and Emmett’s eyes widened; th
Before the explosion... “I have to go back. Adrian might be looking for me,” Gabriel said, adjusting his suit. Agustin pulled him back, making him sit on his lap. “Stop!” He slapped Agustin’s hand, which was slipping back inside his suit. “Another round, hmm?” Agustin kept kissing his neck. Gabriel’s eyes widened; he pushed Agustin’s hand away. “That’s enough for now! You’ll pick me up tomorrow, right?” Agustin nodded and hugged him. “I hate work. I hope we could stay like this until you can’t walk.” Gabriel laughed, shaking his head. It was his wish too, but he knew Agustin had a lot to handle and didn’t want to be a hindrance. “You have to work. You’ll be the chairman, right?” He smiled. Agustin paused, resting his head on Gabriel’s shoulder. “Agustin, you have responsibilities, and I know that. I’m not the kind of boyfriend who locks you up here. I just want to support whatever you do—just please be careful.” Gabriel caressed Agustin’s face. “You look tired. Maybe you s
THIRD POV “It’s been more than five minutes, and Gabriel still hasn’t come back,” Adrian said, sounding worried. Emmett patted Adrian’s shoulder. “Maybe nature called, that’s why he’s taking long,” he said. Adrian glared at him and pushed him away. “Not funny, tsk.” Adrian rolled his eyes. Emmett moved closer to Adrian, leaning his lips near his boyfriend’s ear. “Let’s get out of here.” He whispered, raising an eyebrow, but his boyfriend seemed in no mood, so Emmett scratched his head. “Just kidding. I know you’re worried about him, and I’m worried too. He’ll be back. He won’t disappear from your mansion.” He sighed, kissed Adrian on the head to calm him down. He trust the Knights’ men—no one else can get in here. “I’m also worried. It feels like the same thing when Robles kidnapped Gab,” Philip said. Emmett stepped on Philip’s foot and gave him a wide-eyed warning look. “Dude, seriously, I’m worried about him. We’ll be in trouble with Agustin if Gabriel disappears again. Not thi
